A goal of the Tribal Colleges and Universities Program (TCUP) is to increase the science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) instructional and research capacities of specific institutions of higher education that serve the Nation's indigenous students. Expanding the instructional, research, and development capacity at these institutions expands the opportunities for students to pursue challenging, rewarding careers in STEM fields, provides for research studies in areas that may be locally relevant, and encourages a faculty community to look beyond the traditional classroom for intellectual and professional growth. This project aligns directly with that goal by strengthening the STEM cyberinfrastructure for instructional and research activities. The project aims to enhance cyberinfrastructure and cybersecurity necessary to facilitate development of the institution in STEM fields and for the protection of sensitive data. The project seeks to upgrade specific STEM IT resources at the institution to improve the resiliency and security of STEM operations, data management, teaching, and research enterprises. Improvements to ANC’s network and cybersecurity seeks to advance the college’s ability to implement advances in STEM instruction and research. The activities for developing STEM cyberinfrastructure will directly support current and future projects. Students will benefit from increased access to online resources and virtual courses. STEM research activities in environmental science and natural resources will be aided and enabled by advances in cyberinfrastructure at the institution. Due to the inclusion of the library in the upgrade, the community served by the college will also benefit.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

部落学院和大学方案(TCUP)的一个目标是提高为本国土著学生服务的特定高等教育机构的科学、技术、工程和数学(STEM)教学和研究能力。扩大这些机构的教学、研究和发展能力将扩大学生在STEM领域追求具有挑战性、有回报的职业的机会，提供可能与当地相关的领域的研究性学习，并鼓励教师群体将目光投向传统课堂之外的智力和专业成长。该项目通过加强STEM教学和研究活动的网络基础设施，直接与这一目标保持一致。该项目旨在加强必要的网络基础设施和网络安全，以促进该机构在STEM领域的发展和保护敏感数据。该项目旨在升级该机构的特定STEM IT资源，以提高STEM运营、数据管理、教学和研究企业的弹性和安全性。对非国大网络和网络安全的改进旨在提高该学院在STEM教学和研究方面取得进展的能力。发展STEM网络基础设施的活动将直接支持当前和未来的项目。学生将受益于更多地访问在线资源和虚拟课程。环境科学和自然资源领域的STEM研究活动将得到该机构在网络基础设施方面的进步的帮助和推动。由于图书馆被纳入升级，学院所服务的社区也将受益。这一奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
